I sent Aico an email to remind them about the van sticker. They sent a pack of 5.#40 did mention this, and you replied #48...but if you now have stock in maybe you will win having beaten the price rises!
I did the Aico installer webinar thingy, and got a certificate, but i can't see a van sticker anywhere.
I have big problems with the Aico radio link alarms, every time I go to my garden office for a crafty smoke I set off the alarm in my office which sets off the alarm in the house, the smoking is not so secret anymore.
I didn't get a van sticker, just a PDF Certificate...
I don't have a van, but still...a sticker would be nice!
Haven't had a sticker since i went to the dentist when i was 5
So what do you guys use to power and/or interlink the Aico alarms, I'm looking at this: 0.75mm² 4 Core PVC Flex White - https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CA0dot75F4slash50.html discuss.
Or just use wireless interconnect battery only unitsSo what do you guys use to power and/or interlink the Aico alarms, I'm looking at this: 0.75mm² 4 Core PVC Flex White - https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CA0dot75F4slash50.html discuss.
In the Aico series that doubles the price of the units, this of course can be offset by the cost of installing cable to each unit, its a conundrum, install the better units (3000 series combined CO/Heat/Smoke) and run a mains cable to them, or take the convenient route and instal more units at a higher cost per unit.Or just use wireless interconnect battery only units
I guess that is very property-dependant, etc.In the Aico series that doubles the price of the units, this of course can be offset by the cost of installing cable to each unit, its a conundrum, install the better units (3000 series combined CO/Heat/Smoke) and run a mains cable to them, or take the convenient route and install more units at a higher cost per unit.

If the house is being rewired it would be crazy not to put in a wired alarm, but I suspect for the majority of cases the more expensive battery units are going to work out far cheaper than running cables in (assuming the situation permits battery-only systems).
With any luck the better brands will be reverse-compatible, but sadly I would not want to bet on all being so!Yes, the expensive battery units should be cheaper to the customer, but after 10 years they all have to be replaced at the same price again.
With wired, you only have to replace the detectors, the extra cost in wiring is negated for future replacements.
